A customizable script for Linux to connect to the ETHZ vpn using openconnect
Install the openconnect package using your packet manager like apt or pacman
Then place the ethz-vpn shell script file in your /bin/ Directory
To do this you can simply run:
sudo wget -O /bin/ethz-vpn https://raw.githubusercontent.com/njalooo/ethz-vpn-connect/refs/heads/main/ethz-vpn
run ethz-vpn setup to enter your credentials. They will be stored encrypted with the password you choose in the folder ~/.share/ethz-vpn-connect/
Alternatively to providing the token secret, you can edit the Script: line 7: remove --token-mode=totp --token-secret=sha1:base32:$TOKEN, remove line 5,11,23,30. With this option you will be prompted for your OTP token each time you connect.
Restart your shell to load the new command using exec bash
